Paragraph 1
The
of George Floyd in Minneapolis has sent
waves across the world. Mr Floyd, a
black man, died after a police officer knelt on his
for over eight minutes, even after he stopped moving. Days of
, looting and clashes with police followed. Citizens vented their
in protests that have spread across America's
cities. The killing of Mr Floyd led the African Union Commission to take the unprecedented
of condemning what it called "
" and the "continuing discriminatory practices against black
".
